Yeah, eventually you end up having to try to convince people that are 
not gullible enough, or closely mixed up in the propaganda enough, to 
completely fail to go, "What the fuck did he/she just say?!", when they 
run. Its why Palin types manage to successfully get as far as 
governorships, then people go, "Where did this nut come from.", when 
running for.. oh, VP, or something, where more people are paying attention.

But, on some level, they do understand this. They just claim, or 
actually think, or something, that its some vast liberal conspiracy, 
which needs to be fixed by killing unions, and rearranging maps, so that 
their votes count, and other people's don't. Wouldn't be bloody 
surprised, at this point, if Wisconsin went much more very very bad for 
them, they wouldn't try claiming redistrict it as part of Canada, to 
avoid having it effect their next election campaign. lol
